Neutrophil Recruitment in Arterial Thrombus and Characteristics of Stroke Patients with Neutrophil-Rich Thrombus
CONCLUSION: Neutrophils were recruited and increased in arterial thrombosis in a time-dependent manner; however, they were not associated with the growth of formed thrombi. Neutrophil fractions in the thrombi of stroke patients appeared to be associated with atrial fibrillation and erythrocyte fraction.PMID:36303310 | PMC:PMC9629897 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2022.0328

Midbrain and bilateral paramedian thalamic stroke due to artery of Percheron occlusion
Conclusion Bilateral thalamic stroke due to artery of Percheron occlusion is a rare presentation of stroke, which can be overlooked in routine CT scan. If diagnosed, it requires further evaluation for stroke risk factors, especially cardiovascular disorders associated with increased embolic risk.

Risk of Cardioembolic Stroke in Cancer Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
In a recent article in the journal, Elbadawi et al1 find that the risk of cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) in cancer patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) was lower than in non-cancer patients with AF. At first glance this may appear surprising in light of the higher risk of stroke of cancer patients generally2,3, particularly those with aggressive subtypes and/or metastatic disease. However, recent studies in patients with AF and cancer4,5 show no increase in stroke risk, seemingly indicating that the risk of cardioembolic stroke specifically is not higher than in cancer-free pacients.

Cancer as a risk factor for stroke in atrial fibrillation patients receiving long-term oral anticoagulant therapy
cancer and cerebrovascular disease are among the most common causes of death in the developed countries and are both associated with a steep increase in incidence among the elderly population. Despite being a less frequent neurological complication in cancer patients, compared to metastases or neurotoxicity from anticancer treatment, stroke incidence in cancer patients is high [1]. The pathophysiology of stroke in cancer patients is largely unknown [2] and can be attributed to cardiac or non-cardiac embolism.

Cancer, atrial fibrillation, and stroke
Cancer patients appear to be at increased risk for atrial fibrillation. Although surgery and chemotherapy exacerbate this risk, this association is observed even in the absence of any cancer-specific treatment. The underlying mechanism of this is likely multifactorial, but systemic inflammation and autonomic dysregulation are hypothesized to play critical roles. Cancer and atrial fibrillation are both independent risk factors for ischemic stroke; however, it is not clear whether this translates to an increased risk of stroke in patients with both comorbidities.

Clinical characteristics and tumor markers in ischemic stroke patients with active cancer
AbstractCancer-associated ischemic stroke (CAS) refers to a hypercoagulation disorder related to malignant tumors, especially adenocarcinoma. Carbohydrate antigen (CA) 125 is a mucinous serum marker that might reflect hypercoagulation status, but the association between CA 125 and CAS is unclear across various types of cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations among tumor markers, coagulation markers, and clinical factors in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with active cancer. Consecutive AIS patients with active cancer (a diagnosis or ongoing active therapy for cancer within 6 months) were pr...

Po-716-07 is cha2ds2vasc score useful for predicting the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and cancer? : a single-center observational analysis
Patients with active cancer were historically excluded from clinical trials validating the CHA2DS2VASc score for stroke prediction in atrial fibrillation (AF). Limited data have questioned the predictive value of the score in patients with cancer and AF, underscoring the need for more personalized scores for prediction of stroke in these patients.

Significance of acute multiple infarcts in multiple cerebral circulations on initial diffusion weighted imaging in stroke patients
Conclusions: AMIMCC are not rare and mostly need MRI to be detected. Multiple and various etiologies are implicated, including cardioembolic diseases in half of them, but also hematologic disorders and angeitis.
